First- I'm new at this. Under a month, about 17 pens so far.
I tried to turn an unstabilized punky, wormy, spalted box elder. It chunked out on me when i got close to being done, about 3/16 thick, maybe a bit less.
Since i really love the look of it and I have several more blanks, is it possible to stabilize it when almost completed? How do I do it, just pour thin CA on it and let it dry before completing it?
Is there a better way? How hard/expensive is it to stabilize my own blanks?
Edit to ask: Who sells good inexpensive stabilized blanks?
Thanks for the info,
